I first met Charlie in May 1979, when I joined the Dept. of Labor crew at the Cayuga Mall office in Ithaca. Charlie was always upbeat and good-humored, and he was a pro at handling the the worst claimants. He was a voracious reader, knocking off mega-novels by James Michener in just a few days. He favored American History, especially books by Mark Twain. I will always remember his kindness and his infectious laughter. He made our office feel like family.
